Samoans are reporting that they heard the explosions
More pics of the tsunamis
Buildings are not built to withstand these over there

Those shots of the darkened sky are incredible.
Here’s hoping for the best for the people of Tonga.

Reports of damage to boats here, Oz, California, Hawaii and Chile.
So many people reported hearing the explosions here as well - 2000kms away.
Some boom

All the best to the PIs out there.
Hearing no reported fatalities at this stage, hope it stays this way.

T'sunami waves (relatively small, thankfully) reported in Oregon, California, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Japan.
Comms with Tonga still pretty difficult according to reports.
Images before and after the eruption are pretty wild

Thankfully, it appears it wasn't a tsunami of the scale of the one that hit in Indonesia back in 2004.
Any news from our resident Tonga posters?

Any reports on casualties? Did Tonga get much warning for the tsunami?

Not sure how much warning they got but the picture is still pretty murky - they were only able to get planes over from NZ to take a look yesterday due to the ash cloud. Tonga lost internet connectivity when it happened too.Uncle fester wrote: ↑Mon Jan 17, 2022 1:23 pm Any reports on casualties? Did Tonga get much warning for the tsunami?

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60027913Nick Eleini told broadcasters the family was "devastated" after Angela Glover died trying to rescue her dogs.
He said he understands her body was found by her husband James, who managed to cling to a tree when the wave hit, following the eruption of a volcano.
"Angela and James loved their life in Tonga and adored the Tongan people," Mr Eleini said.
It is the first known death of the disaster, caused by the eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Haʻapai volcano on Saturday, about 40 miles (65km) north of Tonga's capital Nuku'alofa, where the Glovers lived.
